RE: [docbook-apps] Re: VirtualBox DocBook 5.0 VM
I'm using the Windows version of xsltproc.

xsltproc worked fine on our smaller manuals (~50 pages), but it wasn't able to handle our largest books (~400 pages). I need to be able to build all the manuals on the writers' machines, which are Windows 7 or Windows XP laptops with only 2 GB of RAM. Xsltproc couldn't seem to handle those constraints. Saxon+Xerces can.

If other people are using xsltproc under similar constraints on Windows and it's working fine, perhaps I'm doing something wrong.

Regards,
Jeff

Was that a Windows version, or *unix?

Size of manual?

I'm sure libxslt folks would love to hear about that whichever system it was on.
